Discover the BEST Mac apps of 2023: th-cam.com/video/-e9638SlI7A/w-d-xo.html 🏆(and watch me unveil them in a suit) Appreciate each of you who decided to watch this video - hope it was helpful! Feel free to check it out if you're interested! 😊One more thing: When you try to open Upscayle the first time, you‘ll get the pop-up “The developer cannot be verified“, which prevents you from opening it. To do so anyway, right-click the app in your Applications folder and select “Open”. Despite this message, the app is commonly used and open-source. :)
I just wanted to say thank you both for the recommendations and for coming straight to the point without ANY ado. No long boring intros, directly and only the content we need, definitely feels like a new fresh air for TH-cam. Keep up the good work👍🏻
Ok you’re my go to channel for anything macOS related from now on. You go straight to it without any boring introductions. You focus on apps that are one time purchase and here with AI you put a lot of focus on offline and privacy which is something that’s really important at least for me when looking at tools like that. Truly amazing thank you for your hard work.
Really appreciate your feedback! Straight-to-the-point content is key for me - don't wanna waste anyone's time! So happy to hear you value it. I'll see you in the next one!
This video on how to make your Mac insanely smart with these 8 AI apps is unquestionably one of the best I've seen. The detailed explanation and breakdown of each app were simply outstanding, providing clear insights into the functionalities and potential uses of these tools. It's rare to find such a comprehensive, well-articulated guide, especially considering the complexity of AI technology. The impressive aspect of it all is that most of these apps are entirely free! From upscaling low-resolution images to enhancing audio recordings and transcribing video conferences, the range of capabilities showcased here is nothing short of remarkable. This tutorial not only broadens one's understanding of AI applications on Mac but also demonstrates how they can greatly enhance everyday tasks. A huge applause for such a profound and enlightening video.

Question: Could you guide me on setting up a three-finger tap for middle click on my MacBook Air M2 15? Your help would be incredibly valuable! Thanks so much! New MacBook Air M2 15 user, still getting used to macOS. Watching your videos to learn macOS efficiently. Need help with middle click function on macOS. Middle click crucial for tasks like closing tabs and apps while browsing. Explored online but no effective solution found yet. Confusing suggestions due to different macOS versions. Seeking permanent solution for this basic issue. Specifically want three-finger tap on trackpad to work as middle click
Hi, for what do you want to use the Middle Click? As far as I know there's no middle click option on the Mac trackpad... You can basically find every trackpad customization option in the Trackpad section of System Settings. I've heard of some third-party apps that can do the middle click on the trackpad, but I've never tested them out. Sorry, I couldn't be of more help!
you have completly changed my mac experience my friend, just wondering would you mind telling us which editing software do you use please ? many thanks
Great video, good job! From my experience il takes a lot of GPU memory to run AI (LLM or diffusion models) on a Mac, could you share your Mac configuration with us?
HELLO, GREAT VIDEO! COULD YOU TELL ME THE NAME OF THE AI PLATFORM FOR BACKGROUND REMOVAL FROM PHOTOS, THE ONE YOU TRIED WITH BIRD ? I THOUGHT I HEARD YOU SAY SCAN THING, BUT APPARENTLY THAT IS SOMETHING ELSE. MANY THANKS!
Hey, thank you! It indeed is ScanThing (scanthing.app), but if you want to use Apple's native background removal feature, you can also right-click a subject in a photo in the Photos app, and select Copy Subject.
Found these videos recently, and was surprised to find some of the suggestions somewhat decent. A few notes: 1. Stop hyping up Bing Chat and spreading misinformation; everyone even slightly keyed into the AI community knows it completely sucks and its filters make it basically unusable. It's a **search engine**, NOT an AI assistant. It's also powered by Microsoft's sketchy Prometheus web scraper model and a nerfed GPT-4 that switches to 3.5 if it doesn't deem your request "sophisticated" enough for the good version. You also don't get plugins, Search, or Code Interpreter. Plus is really the only way to get access to what is **actually** the only good AI model on the market for proper work. 2. Secondly, the Whisper transcription model is restricted by paywalls for certain features, while anyone with common sense and basic CLI knowledge can download Whisper Open Source from GitHub. I have a tutorial I typed out for noobs, which I'll paste below: Hi, [Whisper](openai.com/research/whisper) is indeed Open Source and able to be commercialized as well. I've been using it to transcribe some notes and videos, and it works perfectly on my M1 MacBook Air, though the CPU gets a bit warm at 15+ minutes. It's pretty simple; about what you'd expect: go to their [GitHub](github.com/openai/whisper) at github.com/openai/whisper and follow the ReadMe instructions. The usual: if you have GitHub Desktop then clone it through the app and/or the git command, and install the rest if not with just: ```pip install -U openai-whisper```. Edit: this is the last install step. You'll need Homebrew to ```brew install ffmpeg```, which the link for can be found [**here**](brew.sh/), but the command is just: ```/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"```. Tbc, install Homebrew, ffmpeg, Python if you don't have it already, and possibly Rust depending on your system (```pip install setuptools-rust```). *Then*, after cloning the repository, install Whisper. I'll assume you have Python if you're asking about Open Sourcing it, but if not the Download link is [**here**](www.python.org/downloads/). Anyways, once you're done with installing the dependencies (of which your mileage may vary depending on how many other projects / repos you've tried to download and run before), you'll want a simple Python script to print the output of the audio file (which supports several types, but mp3 / mp4, webm, m4a, and wav up to 25 MB are probably some of the most common, info in their [Documentation](platform.openai.com/docs/guides/speech-to-text/longer-inputs)): ``` import whisper model = whisper.load_model("base") # load audio and pad/trim it to fit 30 seconds audio = whisper.load_audio("audio.mp3") audio = whisper.pad_or_trim(audio) # make log-Mel spectrogram and move to the same device as the model mel = whisper.log_mel_spectrogram(audio).to(model.device) # detect the spoken language _, probs = model.detect_language(mel) print(f"Detected language: {max(probs, key=probs.get)}") # decode the audio options = whisper.DecodingOptions() result = whisper.decode(model, mel, options) # print the recognized text print(result.text) ``` You'll get about 5 files: a JSON output with the text as a single paragraph along with tokens, a .txt document of the output in lines (all punctuated and formatted as you've come to probably expect from the model, though accuracy and time may vary depending on the size of your chosen scale). I'd recommend the Vue library if you're set on certain formatting. You'll also get a .vtt or Web Video Text Tracks for transcribing your videos and the like, assuming you want to load subtitles sourced to the original time like through iina's styling and positional features. Then there's .srt or SubRip Subtitles, or the default text file for offline video playback numbered as per timestamps. And finally the .tsv or Tab-Separated Values file, which supports tab caption entries for spreadsheets and the like. These are dependent on how you like to customize your output via the Python script, but for the most part seem pretty in line with the production quality of the API, with no discernable difference when the model downgrades due to your CPU. ETA: I just typed the script as whisper.py and saved it in my home directory, *not* the root of the Git. But if you'd like to cd in your Terminal every time to print the output you're welcome to. When actually running the script, you just need to be in a directory Python environment with the dependencies installed and run, for example, ```whisper test.mp3``` and it'll then start running and printing the text and files in the directory in which you've cd'd into in your Terminal, but make sure that the audio file you'd like to transcribe is actually in the directory you're in. It's a rookie mistake, but just confirm by running the ```ls``` command and checking it's there. And that's all!
Hey @@macvince we would love to see how you edit your videos, such a unique but great style of creativity. Maybe do an inside version of how you do it, when we reach a milestone of 50k or something like that? What do you say?
@@iamsubham333 I'm currently working on a video course on how I edit using Fcp, but that takes loads of time besides producing the actual TH-cam videos each week, so I need a few more weeks :)
Please be aware that Grammarly takes over 3-5 GB of RAM. So if you feel like your Mac is getting slower, try deactivating Grammarly and Grammarly extension. If you have the 8GB version, you will need to deactivate it
sehr hilfreiche Tools&Tricks, auf den Punkt und die Videos sind auch gut aufbereitet! Dein Contenct gefällt mir sehr gut bisher und hast einen neuen Abonnenten ;)
Or, instead of scan thing, you can simply tap and hold your finger on an image on your iPhone or iPad with iOS 14 or better and it will cut out the object you want instantly and allow you to save it or copy to clipboard.
Thank you so much you are very talented Mac Vince . And for everyone else who is watching THIS IS HOW ITS DONE ! To the point, pleasantly spoken, entertaining and packed with real necessary information :-)
While researching, I discovered the app "PDF Search: AI Powered" in the Mac App Store. Maybe look into that, I've heard some good things about it! apps.apple.com/us/app/pdf-search-ai-powered/id1229271394?mt=12
I have a question: I’m new to Mac and I was wondering what was best for multitasking, either having every window scaled to “almost” full screen (except for options bar), or actually using full screen with every app. Can you tell me the advantages/disadvantages of each one?
To be honest, I always multitask using two windows directly next to each other (on the same desktop). I use an app called Magnet (Rectangle is also a great alternative) to snap the windows to the left and right side of the screen. That works best for me (at least on my 24 inch iMac display). Or, I also like using the Command + Tab shortcut to quickly switch between two apps that are full screen. Hope this helped! If you're new to Mac, my first 10 things to do on a new Mac video might be useful to you, feel free to check it out: th-cam.com/video/SdVq1pz_3P4/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching! :)
@@macvince thank you so much for your answer! I’ve been looking and I haven’t found so many things about this topic, but what’s the difference between Magnet and Rectangle?
@@gerocastano8 Glad I could help! I personaly have only used Magnet, and it works really well, but I think Rectangle has a free version with only the window snapping. But both are basically the same in terms of window snapping. Oh and you can get Magnet on the App Store, Rectangle is only available on the web.
If you like using keyboard shortcuts and also happen to use raycast you can assisng window management shortcuts from its settings so you don't need any other app for it.

Hi very cool your videos, I want to learn how to edit videos like this too. Is there somewhere I can learn?
Tolle Videos, direkt abonniert. Danke
Found these videos recently, and was surprised to find some of the suggestions somewhat decent. A few notes:
1. Stop hyping up Bing Chat and spreading misinformation; everyone even slightly keyed into the AI community knows it completely sucks and its filters make it basically unusable. It's a **search engine**, NOT an AI assistant.
It's also powered by Microsoft's sketchy Prometheus web scraper model and a nerfed GPT-4 that switches to 3.5 if it doesn't deem your request "sophisticated" enough for the good version. You also don't get plugins, Search, or Code Interpreter. Plus is really the only way to get access to what is **actually** the only good AI model on the market for proper work.
2. Secondly, the Whisper transcription model is restricted by paywalls for certain features, while anyone with common sense and basic CLI knowledge can download Whisper Open Source from GitHub. I have a tutorial I typed out for noobs, which I'll paste below:
Hi, [Whisper](openai.com/research/whisper) is indeed Open Source and able to be commercialized as well. I've been using it to transcribe some notes and videos, and it works perfectly on my M1 MacBook Air, though the CPU gets a bit warm at 15+ minutes.
It's pretty simple; about what you'd expect: go to their [GitHub](github.com/openai/whisper) at github.com/openai/whisper and follow the ReadMe instructions.
The usual: if you have GitHub Desktop then clone it through the app and/or the git command, and install the rest if not with just: ```pip install -U openai-whisper```. Edit: this is the last install step.
You'll need Homebrew to ```brew install ffmpeg```, which the link for can be found [**here**](brew.sh/), but the command is just: ```/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"```.
Tbc, install Homebrew, ffmpeg, Python if you don't have it already, and possibly Rust depending on your system (```pip install setuptools-rust```). *Then*, after cloning the repository, install Whisper.
I'll assume you have Python if you're asking about Open Sourcing it, but if not the Download link is [**here**](www.python.org/downloads/).
Anyways, once you're done with installing the dependencies (of which your mileage may vary depending on how many other projects / repos you've tried to download and run before), you'll want a simple Python script to print the output of the audio file (which supports several types, but mp3 / mp4, webm, m4a, and wav up to 25 MB are probably some of the most common, info in their [Documentation](platform.openai.com/docs/guides/speech-to-text/longer-inputs)):
```
import whisper
model = whisper.load_model("base")
# load audio and pad/trim it to fit 30 seconds
audio = whisper.load_audio("audio.mp3")
audio = whisper.pad_or_trim(audio)
# make log-Mel spectrogram and move to the same device as the model
mel = whisper.log_mel_spectrogram(audio).to(model.device)
# detect the spoken language
_, probs = model.detect_language(mel)
print(f"Detected language: {max(probs, key=probs.get)}")
# decode the audio
options = whisper.DecodingOptions()
result = whisper.decode(model, mel, options)
# print the recognized text
print(result.text)
```
You'll get about 5 files: a JSON output with the text as a single paragraph along with tokens, a .txt document of the output in lines (all punctuated and formatted as you've come to probably expect from the model, though accuracy and time may vary depending on the size of your chosen scale).
I'd recommend the Vue library if you're set on certain formatting. You'll also get a .vtt or Web Video Text Tracks for transcribing your videos and the like, assuming you want to load subtitles sourced to the original time like through iina's styling and positional features.

What do you say?
@@iamsubham333 I'm currently working on a video course on how I edit using Fcp, but that takes loads of time besides producing the actual TH-cam videos each week, so I need a few more weeks :)
great vid. many thanks. subbed with notifactions
Just found your channel. Quite impressive. Can't wait for future videos!
Awesome, thank you! More to come :)
Please be aware that Grammarly takes over 3-5 GB of RAM. So if you feel like your Mac is getting slower, try deactivating Grammarly and Grammarly extension. If you have the 8GB version, you will need to deactivate it

Or, instead of scan thing, you can simply tap and hold your finger on an image on your iPhone or iPad with iOS 14 or better and it will cut out the object you want instantly and allow you to save it or copy to clipboard.

Hi. I have dozens of screenshots from which I want to extract text and save to excel/cs. Do you know an application that can do this?
While researching, I discovered the app "PDF Search: AI Powered" in the Mac App Store. Maybe look into that, I've heard some good things about it! apps.apple.com/us/app/pdf-search-ai-powered/id1229271394?mt=12
2 things stand out about this video:
1. His voice... wow
2. This video gives me the retro 80s vibe. I keep thinking of Rick Ashley, for example.
I have a question: I’m new to Mac and I was wondering what was best for multitasking, either having every window scaled to “almost” full screen (except for options bar), or actually using full screen with every app. Can you tell me the advantages/disadvantages of each one?
To be honest, I always multitask using two windows directly next to each other (on the same desktop). I use an app called Magnet (Rectangle is also a great alternative) to snap the windows to the left and right side of the screen. That works best for me (at least on my 24 inch iMac display). Or, I also like using the Command + Tab shortcut to quickly switch between two apps that are full screen. Hope this helped!

Thanks for watching! :)
@@macvince thank you so much for your answer! I’ve been looking and I haven’t found so many things about this topic, but what’s the difference between Magnet and Rectangle?
@@gerocastano8 Glad I could help! I personaly have only used Magnet, and it works really well, but I think Rectangle has a free version with only the window snapping. But both are basically the same in terms of window snapping. Oh and you can get Magnet on the App Store, Rectangle is only available on the web.
If you like using keyboard shortcuts and also happen to use raycast you can assisng window management shortcuts from its settings so you don't need any other app for it.
Best Mac channel
Thank you!
I only know you for a short time but your Mac videos are really helpful!
Amazing feedback, thank you!
are you editing on final cut or premiere??
Final Cut!
@@macvince how are you making your shots move like that? Are you keyframing? Or is it plugin?
which tool do you use for those 3d video animations?
Final Cut Pro :)
How can ai install that in my Mac? I already have the boulder but can’t isolate the chat on the top bar on my Mac like you use in the video
Amazing content!
I appreciate it, thank you!
What did you use to make the video?
Final Cut!
